Furthermore, LG have kept the buttons to a minimal on the front of this player. As all you will find on the front of this player, is the disc tray, and a USB port, an eject and power button.

The included remote control is well designed, and all the buttons are easy to read and understand.

Features

The LG BP250 Blu-Ray Player is a very basic player with very few features. It can play both standard definition DVD’s and Blu-Ray’s. It cannot play 3D DVD’s or 4K Blu-Rays. It can upscale your standard definition DVD’s to HD quality. So your standard DVD’s will look better than ever. We also must mention that this Blu-Ray player does not come with a HDMI cable included.
